END OF THE FOOTIE BLOGS 2012/13season

I end this year of footie blogs on a sad note. As a diehard Liverpool supporter I understand the views of the modern day pansy supporters. But I fail to summit to them. You get a player who wants to play…. But some types clamber for football easy glory. Like the player who spends time on his hair or gang rapes women after a night club binge.

But surely that is not right. As we line up on a Sunday morning with hang overs from the night before. After losing the previous 8 games .But maybe I am mislead as …  Roy Keane shouts out you prawn sandwich twat. That fucker was right.

The truth is for the first time in my life my club are losing a player because of shit. It is his job to be a football player. A football player he was. What is the game turning into? We pay thousands of pounds in entry fees not to mention the travel. To watch football players play football ….Hard committed players giving 100%. Honest from all parts of the world the best players. When they quote it is my job … To right it is your  job.  For all of us …WHAT YOU HAVE NEVER SEEN ROLLER BALL …..It is better on the pitch than on the street…….

We are Human beings ….              What happens on football on the pitch stays on the pitch ….If you think different you are a knob...Do not say think of the kids or you are a bigger knob ...We pay to watch the players who are the best at their job. The difference we hope they don’t get injured but they always do …. Only a few players never get injured …….(tends to spook the pretend  players ) ……Very rare that players give 100% in every game they play and never get injured …….Think on media don’t mess with the game to much …Otherwise your dinner will be missing from the table .

THIS IS DEDICATED TO Luis Alberto Suárez Díaz

We Must Retake the Throne

Another frustrating season bites the dust. With only a slight improvement on the previous season. With a closed season of anticipation already set in we tick the days off on the calendar.But can we add tempt or keep hold of are main assets to be a part of the squad next season??

With no European football at Liverpool Football Club next year it is going to be interesting. All are emphasis has got to be on clean sweep of domestic success. If it is there to win we must win it. Anyone who we want to keep or buy in we must convince them of a short sharp 2 year plan. Then the club can start moving forward at pace we are accustom with.   

The owners (FSG) can really start the ball rolling with this movement by nailing the refurbishment plans for Anfield with some solid start dates. It will help to persuade quality players to take a chance to be part of something big.  The Suarez situation if we can keep him for the start of the next season and he gets some games under his belt, I think it will be OK.But he will need some help as I said in a earlier blog http://styfnorm.blogspot.co.uk/2013/04/suarez-value-for-money.html  . 

The kid needs to play football a lot of football. But with the retirement of the Legend that is Jamie Carragher we need a centre back cover. I think we could get Lugano in for a year on the cheap. He is on loan at Malaga from PSG at the moment becomes a free agent in June. Surly the captain of Uruguay could add some stability to Suarez. Plus Lugano could play a roll like McAllister did some years back we won 5 cups that year. 

Next season I would be happy if we added 4 quality players to the squad. A striker holding midfielder…. play maker midfielder.. and a centre back. With a huge push on the youth policy to bring 3 or 4 through that is in the perfect world. But now we can only dream with wish teams. But we all know it is going to be a huge season for the future of the club.

Ø Hillsborough inquiry
Ø Anfield Refurbishment
Ø Premiership Top 4 at least
Ø At least 1 domestic trophy
Ø Suarez his future
Ø 4 Quality players in 4 home grown players through the ranks

The Throne of English Football back.

Huge Derby day

 TO MAKE YOUR OWN FORMATIONS AND TACTICS ...FREE & SHARE AT http://www.yourtactics.com/

Today is a day for Glen Johnson to be on top of his game. His forward runs will have to be timed to perfection. Everton’s main threat comes on the left through Pienaar and Baines. If Johnston gets caught in no man’s land we will be punished. He has to be on top of his game.
 If so Downing can push on more to link better with Sturridge. Coutinho has turned into a more striking player with his tracking back impressive also. So Liverpool will be playing today with 2 strikers. Gerrard will play in a deeper role with Lucas …with Everton’s midfield being as strong as it is. This derby will be won on discipline. A win today I can see Liverpool finishing above Everton.
Whatever happens it will be feisty as it always is …..

Life without Suarez

After all the over the top shit about Suarez all week it is now back to the football for the Reds. Suarez is going to be a big hole to fill’ but upwards an onwards with Newcastle on Saturday. It is giving Sturridge the chance to shine.

He made a big difference against Chelsea when he came on. He is a clever player and getting stronger. He also has not had the chance to have a full game playing with an equally clever Coutinho. So after all the negativity this week this something all red supporters can look forward to. So how will Brendan Rodgers set up for the Newcastle game???.

This formation and tactics looks favourite. With the question how fit is Borini.He could link up well with Sturridge. If you’re thinking different you can make and post your own up anywhere using http://www.yourtactics.com/ free & share 

Suarez value for money

As I have documented in many previous blogs I have watched Suarez for over 5 years.  He lives for his wife little girl and Football. He never gets injured trains 7 days a week and gives 100% every game he plays. Now compare that too many football players who are on 100 grand a week strolling round the pitch as the money rolls in.

From the pockets of people who are struggling to make ends meet. You get your money’s worth with Suarez week in week out. He might have gone over the top with his passion in the Chelsea game. But at the end of the day his buzz comes on pitch. Not from some tacky night spot fast cars picking up bimbos drinking shagging around …getting nicked. His passion is football which makes him a footballer who really does earn footballs high wage packet.

Unlike the likes of Emmanuel Adebayor, to name but one who walks round in a lazy daze getting paid over a 100 grand for his trouble. But he is just one there are many players in the Prem who are biting the hands that feed them. They are ripping the supporters off which is one thing that is defiantly not  true of Suarez .
As for the incident in the Chelsea game . I have been watching Suarez in the last couple of games. I could see this happening he has got a lot of pent up passion. For the simple reason he not playing enough competitive football.

 He is at his best when he is playing 3 games week with a 3 time zone flight in the middle . The first 2 thirds of the season he was doing that on a regular basis. Happy…. playing well basically carrying Liverpool while still banging them in for Uruguay.

But with Liverpool having steadily falling out of competitions his game schedule has ground to a halt. A huge frustration to player like Suarez. It all came out in the biting incident not good ….But just as a smack head will rob your house to feed his/hers habit, The lack of football has sadly   had the same bad effect on Suarez. I have seen it happen to him before. Liverpool as a club must help him with this problem’ keep him round the anger he is a special footballer. Build a team round him so he is playing competitive games 3 times a week 8 months a year. That is all the lad wants.

Before the Chelsea game I thought Suarez would be sold. But now I am not so sure. We Liverpool Football Club are part of his family. We pull together for our own as the whole football world knows so well . For his effort and commitment he has given to the club he deserves no less .

NOT ENOUGH GAMES SYNDROME

To make your own formation and tactics go to

Well here Liverpool go again on a mini winning streak. West Ham next with a slim chance left of a top 4 finish. With injury’s to Bale and Gallas on Thursday Tottenham’s job to maintain form looks harder. Rafa at Chelsea and the amount of games they are playing any think is possible. Not to mention we play Chelsea and Everton. So the Everton v Tottenham game at the weekend a draw would be good.  West Brom host Arsenal who are no mugs at the Hawthorn’s as Liverpool found out the first match of the season.

But all this aside we have to win the West Ham game on Sunday. As I take my seat on Sunday I will not have the right to win attitude about me. I have got to get out of that habit things have changed at the moment. But I am sure they will return but for now there is always the air of doubt.
One of the main problems I think facing Liverpool is the fact we are playing very few games. More so for the likes of Suarez. Who would be happy playing 5 games a week, then sill get bored on the other two days . I don’t think I have not known Liverpool to have so few games. So hopefully new tactics and longer to work on them is going to prove fruit full. Well we will see on Sunday at least there is no Andy Carroll to worry about.

For the team itself you would be foolish to change it from the Villa game. I thought it was a solid performance  our first touch was a bit off , But that is a symptom of having  very few games.  We have NOT ENOUGH GAMES SYNDROME …….So it makes sense to play a team that is more accustom to playing competitive games. We must keep up are end of the bargain by getting a solid win on Sunday then hope someone slips up its happened before .

Your Tactics Explained

As you may know or not know I have been pushing the formation creator web site  http://www.yourtactics.com/ . The reason apart from being a neat little free site covering 8 major worldwide sports.

The only site of its kind to do that.

But yes it is my sons Liverpool University project.

So perfect I can help him with that.  We live breathe football so we are just adding 7 more sports to our conversation list. As I took him to Anfield for the 1^st time when he was 6 we have took on more sports to banter about in the pre and after match pint .But the Sharing of formations round the world has been good.

 Putting formations on the Boston Red Socks Facebook page gets reactions. After all Liverpool are linked to the club. Is it more than a game of rounder’s?  Do formations post them and find out.
The most popular sports for formation uploads so far have been of course Football.  In a close second has been the Finnish with their Ice Hockey. They are mad for it as they say. Then.... Rugby League it is the most interesting formation lay out.

 So what I do is go to Wikipedia swot up on the rules. Then post a formation on whatever sport to Twitter Facebook etc.  .
He is working on new feature to the formations which will be good. So if you have been getting bombarded with me going on about your tactics this is a few reasons why. Cracking little site and I am proud because it’s my boys.
